Kernel 2.6.28 released on 24.12.2008 works with the mantis driver in the [http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin s2-liplianin] repository.

Kernel support is available since Kernel version 2.6.33. For kernel versions prior to 2.6.33, see the corresponding sections under Drivers below.

The mantis-multiproto driver has been tested with Ubuntu Hardy (2.6.24?) on the 28.11.2008. CAM/CI is not working with current mantis for me. I have a crash when scanning or zapping with the CAM inserted. Take the CAM module out if you have one for the moment! (Is this also true for the new driver??)

This is the recommended driver. Install the latest mantis drivers like this.

The Mantis Driver is part of the vanilla linux kernel[http://git390.marist.edu/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=2faae42233778676607a2a45b95aeb375bebe2c6] since 2.6.33.

If you have a distribution which uses [http://linux.dell.com/projects.shtml#dkms DKMS] (like Ubuntu), [[Mantis with DKMS]] is a convenient way to install the driver and keep it running for new kernel releases.

There have been some problems with the s2-liplianin repository (only works for 30 minutes) and a fix that has worked for someone is to use http://jusst.de/hg/v4l-dvb instead of [http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin]. You should/could also use the sudo make menuconfig and remove all the unnecessary modules.
